Re: qsyslibl entries and qmqm

What belongs in qsyslibl? I believe just IBM system stuff. 

Minimum: QSYS
         QSYS2
         QHLPSYS
         QUSRSYS

plus one site specific library at the top containing overrides for IBM commands and other things that affect the SYSTEM. Also possibly a language library although they are better handled by the SYSLIBLE keyword on a subsystem description. May also include 3rd-party libraries that provide 'system-like' functions but I'd avoid that if possible.

What belongs in qusrlibl? I believe utilities, global app stuff, etc. 

Minimum: QTEMP
         QGPL

plus one or more utility libraries and any library needed by most users. Note: QTEMP and QGPL do not belong in QSYSLIBL--they are user libraries. (Even though many sites do put these in QSYSLIBL to free up 2 slots in the user portion of the library list.)

What belongs in jobd libl? Jobd specific.

Job descriptions are usually created for specific jobs therefore they should either inherit from *SYSVAL or have QTEMP, QGPL, plus job specific libraries.

What belongs in app specific libl? App specific.

There isn't such a thing unless you build your own 'library-list' objects. But yes, application specific libraries. These can be set via job descriptions, from some external source such as a data area or file, or via an application initial program.
